This “excellent” seaside gastropub-with-rooms on the eastern tip of the Isle of Wight has stunning views to Hayling Island and Selsey on the mainland. Opinions divide slightly on the cooking: a couple of disappointed diners thought it’s “no longer what it once was”, but a majority recommend very good fish cooking here.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
